UltiMaker PLA Filament

PLA is Shop3D's recommended choice for all 3D Printing for Schools/Libraries/Homes.  It is easy to print, does not have offensive odours and the colours are nice and vibrant.

Reasons to Choose UltiMaker PLA
  • If you want to easily achieve high resolution prints
  • Printing concept models and prototypes when aesthetics and fine details are key
  • When you’re casting metal parts through lost PLA casting
  • It’s perfect for printing in education or in the office, thanks to low ultrafine particle emissions
  • A heated bed isn’t necessary, it works with glue and blue tape as well
  • PLA isn’t suitable for medium temperature applications (50˚C +) or long term outdoor usage. ABS is a better material for high temperature applications and CPE for outdoor usage.
UltiMaker Materials Comparison

Every material has different properties. Our comparison helps you select the best one for your application.

  • PLA/ABS: You’re comparing an aesthetic material to a technical one. PLA is easy to use and has good surface quality, whilst ABS is better for functional parts that require impact strength and dimensional stability. There’s a transparent PLA option available.
  • PLA/CPE: You’re comparing an aesthetic material to a technical one. PLA is easy to use and has good surface quality, whilst CPE is best for functional parts that require both strength and chemical resistance. Both PLA and CPE have transparent options available.
    Overview

    Fast, safe and reliable printing

    PLA is ideal for the fast and reliable printing of parts and prototypes with a great surface quality.

    PLA plastic in spools that contain 0.75kg. 2.85mm diameter and approximately 90m long.

    UltiMaker's PLA is really easy to print with, it’s reliable, gives good surface quality and it’s made from renewable sources, so it’s biodegradable too. It also works perfectly with Cura material profiles.

    UltiMaker has spent thousands of hours developing Cura profiles to suit our materials, so you can reliably print with optimized print quality. It means that when you’re ready to go, all you need to do is click print – and everything works seamlessly.
